Cleansing balms that deserve to be a part of your skincare routine

No matter how simple or complex your daily beauty routine is, cleansing is usually the first and most important step. However, if you’re someone who wears make-up daily, then a simple cleanser or face wash might not be sufficient to fully cleanse your skin. That’s where cleansing balms come into play. These are gentle yet hydrating and are designed to melt away your make-up, dirt, and grime without stripping your skin of its natural oils. Follow up with your favourite cleanser, and you’ll be left with clean, hydrated skin allowing the rest of your products to absorb much better. 

Check out these incredible cleansing balms that deserve to be a part of your daily cleansing routine! 

Into Doubling Down Nourishing Rinse-off Cleansing Balm, ₹1,875

 

If you're looking for an effective, fuss-free addition to your skincare routine, then this oil-based cleansing balm is for you. Designed to be used on its own, this balm melts into a silky texture that dissolves makeup, impurities, and dirt, rinsing off cleanly without leaving a greasy residue. It’s perfect for those who prefer a straightforward routine without relying on too many products.

The Body Shop Sumptuous Makeup Cleansing Balm, ₹1,395

 

This cleansing butter is enriched with soothing camomile oil that effortlessly melts away even the toughest make-up in under 30 seconds. Be it bold eyeshadow, mascara, or heavy concealer, this formula handles it all with ease. Just massage it into your skin and watch the make-up simply glide off. The cleansing butter is clinically proven to eliminate dirt and grime from your skin, including your daily SPF. 

Aminu Melting Balm Cleanser, ₹1,200

 

This balm is ideal for those with dry, flaky, and mature skin. The product may feel oily at first, but it melts into the skin well, removing oil and dirt and thoroughly cleansing pores. The end result? You are left with soft, nourished skin, prepped for the rest of your routine. 

Forest Essentials Deep Moisture Balm Cleanser, ₹2,400

 

Infused with Avocado, Kokum, and Argan butters, this rich cleansing balm does an amazing job of removing make-up, sebum, and other impurities. It starts out as a thick balm that turns into a gentle emulsion as you continue to work it into your skin. With continued use, the product can help keep your pores clean and avoid congestion. For stubborn make-up, we recommend using more than the usual amount of product and massaging it in for a little longer to thoroughly cleanse your skin. 

Quench Mon Cherry Dirt Dissolving Cleansing Balm, ₹699

 

This cleansing balm has a creamy, oil-based formula. It contains a unique blend of lightweight moringa seed oil and salicylic acid that help deep clean the skin, while grapefruit, pearl, and cherry blossom extracts deeply hydrate and restore your skin's moisture. The best part? The balm transforms into a milky consistency without leaving any oily residue behind, making it a dream product for those with oily or combination skin.
